<DIV><BR></DIV>I spent several days in July wandering around southern
Arizona, showing my wife where I grew up, visiting old friends and seeing
what has changed since my last visit.<BR>After being closely watched as
we parked in the downtown Nogales area, just yards from the border to get
a closer look at "the wall", being followed as we traveled the back roads near
Arivaca and having to pass through Border Patrol checkpoints despite
never having left United States soil, I have come to a conclusion:<BR>The U.S.
must legalize ALL drugs and tax the hell out of them.<BR>This "war on drugs"
has destroyed Nogales and the surrounding areas. A grade school I went to is
having a large fence built around it, this after a BP agent went tearing
through school grounds in an SUV while chasing someone. My old high school,
which is now an alternative high school, has chain link topped by barbed wire
around most of the campus, giving it the feel of a prison, not a
school.<BR>The entire city of Nogales has a weird vibe to it, mind you it has
always been a tough border town, but this is different. There is an ominus
feeling that was never there before, it permeates the city, one can feel
it in stores, on the street and in restaurants. Even my wife commented on
it and asked how we could have lived there for so long. I told her it wasn't
like that when I was younger.<BR>The area around Arivaca, a hamlet in the
middle of the Sonoran Desert northeast of Nogales, is also much changed. At
one time you'd be lucky if you passed 3 or 4 cars between Arivaca and Amado a
distance of about 25 miles. We encountered no less than 26 during the trip
there and back, not including those at the checkpoint.<BR>I stopped a few
times to get out take photos and point out things to my wife along the Arivaca
Road and Ruby Road, which leads south to Nogales. On two occasions a BP truck
parked where its occupant could observe us, once on the Arivaca Road and the
other one Ruby Road where I got out to look over the property my parents used
to own.<BR>The solitude of the desert was shattered several times as choppers
flew past, including one Blackhawk.<BR>If you want to know what it is like to
be in a police state, spend some time south of Tucson.<BR> <BR>> From:
